A 47-year-old woman recovering from a traumatic brain injury alleges a man entered her Wichita hospital room and sexually assaulted her. The suit marks the third civil action against Ascension Via Christi St. Francis related to attacks by Miguel Rodela, who was charged June 21 with rape and two counts of attempted rape in Sedgwick County. Court filings identify the plaintiffs by initials P.S.P., B.L.D., and T.R.W. and state Rodela admitted touching all three to sexualize conduct.
